Built by a parent at 2 a.m.

Nova was built by Leon Henderson after a four-hour meltdown with his autistic son, when he could not find one calm, practical answer anywhere. Nova is the support companion he needed that night: step-by-step guidance for meltdowns, sensory overload, communication, school, and daily routines.

Built from lived experience

Every guide and answer pattern in Nova comes from real situations in the autism community, written in plain language.

Not a clinician

Nova provides educational guidance only. It never diagnoses, and it never replaces medical, therapeutic, or legal professionals.
